Absorption and Collisional Redistribution of Molecular Energy Revealed by Double Resonance Spectroscopy/Molecular Deactivation Processes in Visible Chemical Laser Systems.
Abstract
Two major areas of investigation were comprehended by this research program. The first was an investigation of vibrational relaxation properties of small polyatomic molecules, primarily by the techniques of infrared-infrared and infrared-microwave double resonance spectroscopy. At a later stage, the emphasis was shifted to deactivation processes involving electronically excited states of small molecules having potential applications to visible chemical laser systems. Results are summarized. A report on saturation of infrared absorption in PFS, BCls, and propynal is included.
